Stuck in the middle of nowhere with no suspension. USEFUL without permission. Mandatory application and registration

Stuck in the wilderness without suspension. USEFUL without permission. Required Application and Orientation Purchased as a replacement stabilizer. I dropped my primary camera, pulled out my backup and her paperweight. where I was "Internet" wasn't at all. Period. Not only does it require an app (why?), but you also need to sign in with an account and "activate" the device (oh, that's why it needs an app). turn it on this is utterly nonsensical. Is there an app for additional features? Of course. but do you even require it to activate the device? I could never recommend such a device with such a ridiculous limitation. When I got back to civilization I was able to download the (quite large) app and after that it "activated" without any problems. forced me to reveal my information to them even creating an account in the app. while being propelled and stimulated very well from side to side. I aligned the horizon where I wanted and over time it drifted (usually up) and I had to readjust to the neutral position I wanted. its otherwise adequate suspension and I like how it folds and "locks" into a secure configuration. This should make it much more durable over time in the trunk etc. What needs fixing And what's the point of not turning on the case? They've gone from an AWESOME compact, lightweight, foldable design to not having a case, right? erase that noise. Make transactions. Even though it's an add-on that you buy separately, that's fine as the price is pretty competitive. but a suitcase (properly fitting suitcase) is a must for something like this. I'm a bit negative but this is a must have app and just logging in to activate it gives me a genuine feeling that I don't like you. That's what got me away from DJI. I don't want to ask a company for "permission" to use a product that I own and have paid for. That annoys me very, very much. Besides being a really good product, it actually has many features that make it a very good product. but 3 things need to be fixed before I can even think of proposing this to anyone. NO APP to activate and use devices. It's only needed because you decide it's needed, not because the hardware needs it. Fixed horizon neutral drift. Maybe there's a way to fix this and I'm just excited enough not to look, so it might be an easy fix. it can be optional. In some cases I can pay for these items separately, but these products MUST be in an appropriate protective sleeve or they won't make it to our next shoot.

Pros
  • is clear, even the old
Cons
  • Exchange availability
